  • a number of square openings 148 configured to receive a respective one of reshaped fibers 106, 1 12 are formed.
  • One non-limiting approach for modifying fibers 106, 1 12 in these manners involves the application of a temporary binder to fibers 106, 1 12 which are then reshaped to create the spaces discussed above. It is also contemplated that forms involving reshaped fibers can also include the removal of portions of fibers 108, 1 12 as discussed above. For example, a joining portion with a taper may be formed by reshaping fibers and removing portions of fibers 106, 1 12 to match the taper of the joining portion.
  • joining portion 1 14 may be the location of a bend, corner or other geometric configuration in a layer formed by sections 102 and 108, and the bend can include any angle between 0° and 180°.

Further, this thickness of the joining portion is typically one half of what the thickness of the joining portion would be if the sections of textile materials were placed on top of one another without any interlocking

Abstract

La présente invention concerne des techniques de liaison de matériaux textiles. Selon un aspect de l'invention, un système (100) comprend une structure tissée comportant une première couche tissée et au moins une première section (102) et une seconde section (108). La première section (102) comprend une première partie de frange (104) et un premier ensemble de fibres (106, 107), et la seconde section (108) comprend une seconde partie de frange (110) et un second ensemble de fibres (112, 113). Les fibres des premier et second ensembles de fibres sont organisées dans les première (104) et seconde (110) parties de frange pour fournir une disposition entremêlée entre les première (102) et seconde (108) sections.
